Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • A structured source references public exploit or proof-of-concept material.
  • EPSS is 0.58% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Increase monitoring for the attack path and post-exploitation behaviour described in the report.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Unknown GPAC and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 30 daysRemediation target: Within 180 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

Distribution package intelligence

Release-specific package status

ubuntu findings are scoped to the named distribution, release and source package. An absent finding does not mean a package is unaffected.

1 package state
Repository candidate not checked

A published vendor fix does not prove that a matching update is enabled and installable on a particular asset. Confirm the local package candidate before scheduling remediation.

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

A vulnerability has been found in GPAC up to f1219cde. Impacted is the function gf_node_get_name of the file scenegraph/base_scenegraph.c of the component MP4Box. Such manipulation leads to use after free. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version abi-16.23 is recommended to address this issue. The name of the patch is 9eb40df4448b88d6a6ce3454657c06f47eff0b24. Upgrading the affected component is advised.

What, why and how

A vulnerability has been found in GPAC up to f1219cde. Impacted is the function gf_node_get_name of the file scenegraph/base_scenegraph.c of the component MP4Box. Such manipulation leads to use after free. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version abi-16.23 is recommended to address this issue. The name of the patch is 9eb40df4448b88d6a6ce3454657c06f47eff0b24. Upgrading the affected component is advised.

Why

The program can continue using memory after it has been released, producing unsafe and attacker-influenceable behaviour.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation when the stated preconditions are met. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
Reference recorded

CISA Vulnrichment records proof-of-concept exploitation in its SSVC data. BlackTree has not independently executed or validated exploit material.

Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-416 ↗

CWE-416: Use After Free. The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory belongs to the code that operates on the new pointer.

?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
